Ja 4 'Phantom'

The NIKE Ja 4 'Phantom' is NBA player Ja Morant’s fourth signature basketball shoe, built around his sudden stops, jumps and changes of direction. Its name references his ability to slip out of a defender’s sight. In White/Cobalt Bliss/Photon Dust/Black, a glossy black Swoosh contrasts with the white base. It joins the midfoot TPU piece to form his initials, J and A. The low-top silhouette has a breathable mesh upper reinforced with an abrasion-resistant, diamond-textured layer. A full-length Cushlon 3.0 midsole softens landings, while a SPRPWR foam insole adds responsiveness. Replacing the series’ previous hybrid cushioning setup, these two foams work without Air or Zoom units to keep the foot closer to the court and more stable laterally. The TPU JA-Frame wraps the midfoot and outer edge for support during sharp cuts. Inspired by Morant’s logo, the multidirectional rubber outsole pattern delivers indoor traction, a particular highlight in reviews. The fit is snug through the forefoot and midfoot. Take your usual size, or consider half a size up for wider feet. The materials may need a short break-in period. Every pair at sutore is new, unworn and verified authentic. The style code on this pair’s box label is IM4135-100.
